Snow creatures.
The idea to create snowmen is restrictive in the education process. To ask students to re-create something (like a snowman) they have seen many times, requires little imagination. Asking students to create something, anything they would like, requires them to utilize their imagination.
In today’s society, students are of many different cultures. Their personal experiences permit them to utilize their knowledge and open their minds to be creative.
Limiting a student is like limiting an inventor. By forcing them to conform, you limit their potential and lower their self esteem.
I strongly encourage potential teachers to see beyond the box, to open students eyes (not put blinders on them), and promote individuality.
